Chapter 83: Ambush along the way
"Uncle Li, where is the spiritual place you mentioned?"
Three days later, three figures flew slowly in the sky ten miles away from the town. Two of them were wearing blood-stained clothes, and one was wearing black armor. They were Li Hong and his party.
"Since I promised to give you some advice, you will know it when you get there." Li Hong said lightly.
Hearing this, the demon surnamed Xue couldn't help but be excited.
Uncle Li had said before that there was a spiritual spring nearby, and he would take him there to practice, and would give him a foundation-building pill, so that he could soar into the sky and become a senior in foundation-building.
This made him so happy that he was so excited that he couldn't sleep for three days and three nights.
So, he tactfully stopped asking more questions and sat there dreaming about foundation-building.
But he didn't know that a hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of Li Hong, who was flying in front.
In silence, the three flew for dozens of miles again.
But suddenly, Li Hong paused.
A dark cloud appeared in front of them, covering the sky for thousands of meters. The rolling spiritual energy came out from it like a tide, blocking the way of the three people.
"Who is looking for death? How dare you block the way here?"
Li Hong's expression changed slightly. It was obvious that someone was blocking the way in front of him, but he didn't know who was so bold as to ambush here?
"Hehehe... I haven't seen you for more than half a year. Brother Li, can't you recognize me so quickly?"
A light laugh came from the dark cloud. Li Hong frowned and looked up to see a young man in a simple linen shirt in the dark cloud. He held a huge black umbrella in his hand. The ink-colored light enveloped the air, dyeing the world gloomy.
"What a top-grade magic weapon! Who are you?"
Li Hong narrowed his eyes slightly and realized that the other party was at the same level as him, and his cultivation was in the early stage of foundation building, but this person was very unfamiliar, and he seemed to have never seen him before.
Ye Chunyang sneered faintly.
He looked at the broken arm on Li Hong's right hand, with a bit of ridicule in his expression, and said: "Brother Li really forgot the pain after the scar healed. Don't you remember how your right hand was broken?"
When he was in the Tianmai Treasury, he was wearing a ghost mask, so Li Hong naturally didn't recognize him. Previously, through the spiritual memory planted in the demon surnamed Xue, he knew that Li Hong would take him through this place and had been waiting here for a long time.
The other party has two Qi Refining Stage and one Foundation Establishment Stage, so it's no problem to deal with them.
Upon hearing this, Li Hong's face was filled with rage, and his eyes were filled with gloomy murderous intent.
"It's you! It's you! Hehehe... God is really watching over you. I have been looking for you for half a year but couldn't find you. Today you came to my door yourself!"
Since leaving the Tianmai Treasury, Li Hong has been silently licking the wound of his broken arm every day and night, dreaming of finding the ghost-faced man to avenge his broken arm.
But this person's identity is mysterious. After the collapse of the Tianmai Treasury, he seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth without a trace. Li Hong even thought that he had died in the treasury. Unexpectedly, he appeared today. This really made him extremely happy.
But at this moment, he was also shocked. He had never stopped practicing in the past six months, and he had taken a lot of elixirs, but his cultivation had not progressed. However, this person was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining when he was in the Tianmai Treasury. Now, in just six months, he has become a master of foundation building. Such a fast speed shocked him.
Li Hong thus realized the strong crisis. This person obviously wanted to seek revenge on him when he blocked the way. If he let the tiger go back to the mountain, he would never have peace in the future.
"That day in the Tianmai Treasury, I almost died in your hands. Today, I am here to take revenge! Li Hong, die!"
As for Li Hong, Ye Chunyang had long wanted to kill him. At that moment, the sky-covering umbrella rolled up, and the clouds rushed out of the sky. Ye Xiaobao had already been behind the other party invisibly, and the Mingwang Sword made a killing sound.
Ye Xiaobao's strength is still above the main body, and using him as the main force can achieve unexpected results.
"What a fast speed!"
Seeing that Ye Chunyang's body did not move, but the flying sword appeared behind him like a ghost, Li Hong was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
He naturally did not know that Ye Chunyang had an invisible Ye Xiaobao. He only thought that Ye Chunyang's strength was terrifying after he advanced to the foundation building stage. Not only was his speed amazing, but he could also attack from the front and back at the same time. A strong sense of crisis arose in his heart.
But he had not wasted the past six months. Although his spiritual power had not yet broken through, his magic had improved a lot. He pinched his fingers and a layer of blood mist spread over his body, which pushed back the Mingwang Sword attacking from behind by three points.
Then he saw his figure flashing, and dozens of demon shadows appeared in the blood mist. At the same time, he waved his hands and clapped, turning defense into offense in an instant, and brought the gravity of a mountain to hit Ye Chunyang.
The demon named Xue and the disciple of the ninth level of Qi Refining beside him could not withstand the fight between two foundation building masters, and were shocked a hundred meters away on the spot.
Seeing the demonic shadows flickering around him, Ye Chunyang was not in a hurry.
The so-called phantom is just a speed bonus that creates an illusion for people, but no matter how fast Li Hong's body is, it is not as fast as his invisible Ye Xiaobao. With a sweep of the Mingwang Sword, all the demonic shadows turned into nothingness, and even their bodies were knocked out.
Li Hong was extremely surprised. His "Phantom Magic Skill" had a miraculous effect of confusing the mind, and Ye Chunyang could smash it with a sword without making a sound. It was simply horrifying!
Ye Chunyang sneered and said nothing. Ye Xiaobao's invisible move had already made Li Hong confused. It was a good time for him to kill. He raised his hands and the "Soul-Calming Bell" pressed down from the air with an extremely powerful force.
"Bang bang bang!"
The clouds in the sky exploded, and Li Hong was unable to dodge and was knocked to the ground, but he was also a tough character. A blood-light shield appeared in front of him, and actually blocked the attack of Ye Chunyang's "Soul-Calming Bell". Then he stomped his feet and turned into blood light and fled away. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the spot.
Ye Chunyang frowned. He realized that Li Hong did not activate any invisible magic weapon or talisman, but performed some kind of magic, which made him unable to find his trace for a while.
But then he laughed, slapped his palm on the Qiankun bag, and a palm leaf fan about ten feet long and wide appeared.
The surface of this fan was crystal clear, as if it was made of ice. As soon as it appeared, it was filled with bone-chilling coldness. It was the "Xuanbing Fan", one of the six magic weapons in the Tianmai Treasury.
With a whoosh, under the fan of this "Xuanbing Fan", a strong wind blew in the air, and a snowy land within three miles was covered with ice. Seeing this, the demon surnamed Xue and the disciple of the ninth level of Qi Refining were terrified and fled further away.
In the silence of heaven and earth, there was a sudden loud bang, and a blood-red light broke through the three-foot ice, and appeared in a slightly embarrassed shape.
"I didn't expect your cultivation to reach such a level. I really underestimated you!"
Li Hong's chest rose and fell violently, and his heart was in turmoil. The current Ye Chunyang was much stronger than when he was in the Tianmai Treasury. After a fight, he was always suppressed by the opponent and was always at a disadvantage. He just used a magic skill to hide his body and wanted to attack unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, Ye Chunyang had such a powerful magic weapon that directly froze the area within three miles, leaving him nowhere to hide.
"Hmph! No matter how you struggle today, I will take your life!"
Ye Chunyang's eyes showed murderous intent. He had no intention of letting Li Hong go from the beginning. At this moment, his spiritual power increased greatly, and the Xuanbing Fan froze the void again.
At the same time, Ye Xiaobao appeared behind him with the Mingwang Sword, ready to kill him.
The demon surnamed Xue and the disciple at the ninth level of Qi Refining in the distance saw only two waves of light, one red and one white, colliding, and the sound of magic tools colliding could be heard, but no human figures could be seen.
At this moment, a blood-red talisman rose into the air, spewing a strong fishy smell, and then a figure in the bloody sky quickly rose up and turned into a thousand-foot giant in an instant. Looking at his face, it can be vaguely recognized that it was Li Hong.
"Want to kill me? Let's see if you have the ability!" The blood-colored giant shouted angrily.
"Incarnation talisman! I didn't expect that the master would give it to Uncle Li!" In the distance, the disciple of the Blood Shadow Demon Sect at the ninth level of Qi Refining showed enthusiasm on his face, and laughed repeatedly: "This is a high-level talisman. Since Uncle Li has offered this talisman, this person must die without a burial place!"
"Incarnation talisman?" The demon surnamed Xue showed surprise.
"This talisman is a supreme level magic of the master, 'outside body incarnation', which can extract the blood and qi of others and transform them into his own Ye Xiaobao. It is extremely powerful. It is said that the master refined this magic into a talisman and gave it to his disciples. Uncle Li, as one of the most valued disciples of the master, naturally got this talisman." The Blood Shadow Demon Sect disciple who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining said proudly.
The demon surnamed Xue was even more shocked when he heard this, thinking that the Blood Shadow Demon Sect was so powerful that the supreme level of magic could be refined into talismans and given to disciples at will.
While the two were shocked, the thousand-foot blood man in the air stepped into the air, and wherever he went, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked, showing the mighty power of the demon, which made Ye Chunyang also reveal the scene of danger.
"It's actually a high-level talisman!"
Having experience in refining talismans, Ye Chunyang naturally knew the power of high-level talismans. He casually took out a stack of talismans and they floated out with the wind. Spells of various attributes bombarded the blood-colored giant, and he took this opportunity to withdraw.
After a period of retreat and refining talismans, Ye Chunyang had many more talismans in his hand than ordinary people. At this moment, he threw out at least ten intermediate talismans, which were enough to smash any cultivator below the foundation building level to pieces.
But then he was surprised to find that under a round of bombardment, the blood-colored giant actually opened his mouth and sprayed a thick layer of blood gas covering the surroundings. All the talismans suddenly calmed down, and he continued to move forward, trampling on the mountains and rivers like a killing machine.
"Hahahaha... You think you can compete with me with these little tricks? You're just daydreaming!"
Li Hong's arrogant laughter came out of the giant's mouth, and his huge eyes like red lanterns looked down at Ye Chunyang from high above.
"I failed to catch you in the Tianmai Treasury last time, and today I must refine you into a blood puppet to make up for my broken arm!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
While speaking, the blood-colored giant's fists were full of vigor, and Ye Chunyang was as small as an ant in front of him, but every time he spread his wings behind him, he quickly escaped from danger, and Ye Xiaobao's invisible attacks came from an unknown place, causing the blood-colored giant to miss many times and become extremely angry.
"The power of the high-level talisman is extraordinary. If the fight continues for a long time, my spiritual power will be consumed. Moreover, the fluctuations here may attract the attention of nearby masters. We need to fight quickly!"
Using the 'Phantom Wings' to fly high in the sky, Ye Chunyang's heart was secretly solemn. The power of Li Hong's "Incarnation Talisman" was far beyond his expectations. He and Ye Xiaobao combined could hardly deal with it.
In this case, he had to use some trump cards!
He slapped the Qiankun bag, and a black iron box flashed out.
Seeing Ye Chunyang's strange behavior, a trace of doubt flashed in the blood-colored giant's eyes, but soon turned into disdain, and he continued to roll forward like a steel machine.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
The iron box in Ye Chunyang's hand was opened, and a dazzling light burst out from it. When he got closer, he found that it was densely packed with snow-white bone nails, filled with amazing spiritual power.
The blood-colored giant felt the danger and quickly transformed into a blood-light shield in front of him.
But an amazing scene appeared. The dozens of bone nails were unstoppable and pierced his defense in an instant. His body exploded into blood mist with a bang, leaving only a dim talisman and a blood-red token floating in the air.
